  1. South Ridge Valencia Rootstock Trial Dr. Bill Castle – Dr. Fred Gmitter - Dr. Jude Grosser September 6, 2019 CREC Citrus Plant Improvement

  2. South Ridge Valencia Rootstock Trial - Description Two standard Valencia clones, 55-4 and 1-14-19, are combined with the California C-series [C-22, Bitters, C-54 Carpenter, C-57 Furr and C-146] rootstocks along with Willits citrange [size-controlling] and the Spanish series FA-5, 31 and 517 in this trial. Planting took place in May 2014 in a cooperator site located just west of downtown Lake Placid. The objectives are to compare two scion clones of the relatively tolerant Valencia sweet orange primarily for HLB response, and to evaluate the horticultural traits of these rootstocks which are all included in a series of trials placed throughout Florida; thus, this trial can be viewed as one of a network of several designed to expand the base of evaluation.

  11. South Ridge Valencia Rootstock Trial – Heat Map 2018-19 Tree Health and Size Ratings for each clone [October 2018]Data collected from 5 year old trees Betterone Heat Map Interpretation Color coding is used to better visualize the relative ratings for tree health and size of two ‘Valencia’ orange clones on each of the rootstocks. A high (Best) rating is in blue and low (Worst) rating is in red. The other colors represent the values between high and low according to the color scale. For tree size, dark blue indicates a large tree, green a medium-sized tree and red a relatively small tree. High rating Med C-54[55-4] C-22[55-4] C-146[1-14-19] FA-517[55-4] Medium rating C-146[55-4] Willits[55-4] FA-5[1-14-19] C-57[55-4] Low rating FA-13[1-14-19] Willits[1-14-19] C-57[1-14-19] C-22[1-14-19] CREC Citrus Plant Improvement
